Answer:

It would cost more to go to the zoo by $6

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount that each attraction costs can be given by;

<em>Science center</em>

Total cost at the science center=cost per ticket×number of tickets

where;

Total cost at the science center=$36.75

Cost per ticket=c

Number of tickets=3 tickets

Substituting;

36.75=c×3

c=(36.75/3)=12.25 per ticket to go to the science ticket

For 12 students, total cost at the science center=(12.25×12)=$147

<em>Zoo</em>

Total cost at the zoo=cost per ticket×number of tickets

where;

Total cost at the zoo=$51

Cost per ticket=d

Number of tickets=4 tickets

Substituting;

51=d×4

d=(51/4)=12.75 per ticket to go to the zoo

For 12 students, total cost at the zoo=(12×12.75)=$153

Total zoo cost-Total science center cost=(153-147)=$6

It would cost more to go to the zoo by $6

The railing of a wheelchair ramp is parallel to the ramp. Find x and y in the diagram.
yKpoI14uk [10]

Given:

The wheel chair ramp is parallel to the ramp.

To find:

The value of x and y.

Solution:

If two lines are parallel, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.

4x° + 6y° = 86° --------- (1)

Similarly,

5x° + 6y° = 94°

Subtract 5x° from both sides.

5x° + 6y° - 5x° = 94° - 5x°

6y° = 94° - 5x° --------- (2)

Substitute (2) in (1).

4x° + 94° - 5x° = 86°

94° - x° = 86°

Subract 94° on both sides.

94° - x° - 94° = 86° - 94°

- x° = 86° - 94°

- x° = -8°

Multiply by -1 on both sides, we get

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 in (2).

6y° = 94° - 5(8)°

6y° = 54°

Divide by 6 on both sides, we get

y = 6

The value of x is 8 and y is 6.

Write an explicit formula for a^n the nth term of the sequence 1,3,9....
frutty [35]

Answer:

  a_n = 3^(n -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The n-th term of a geometric sequence with first term a1 and common ratio r is given by ...

  a_n = a1·r^(n-1)

Your sequence has first term 1 and ratio r=3, so the sequence is given by ...

  a_n = 3^(n -1)

_____

<em>Comment on sequences and series</em>

The sequences we commonly study are "arithmetic" and "geometric." Each of these has an explicit formula for the n-th term, based on the first term and the common difference or ratio. Similarly, each series (sum of terms of a sequence) also has a formula. That's 4 formulas to keep track of; not difficult. One of them, the formula for the n-th term of a geometric sequence, is shown above.

Solve for x and y. Geometry
Otrada [13]

Answer:

x =106.5

y = 73.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle x is 1/2 arc SPQ

x = 1/2(98+115)

x = 1/2(213)

x =106.5

We know that x+y = 180  since this is an inscribed quadrilateral in a circle

x+y=180

106.5 +y =180

Subtract 106.5 from each side

106.5-106.5 +y =180-106.5

y = 73.5

Clem Shirestock is at a dock on a bank of a straight river that is 1 mile wide and wants toreach the barge toll gate on the othe
oee [108]

The total time taken by Clem Shirestock to reach the gate is given by the  equation 7 = 4√(x²+1)+ 8 - 2 x

Let the point P is at a distance of x miles from the toll gate.

Hence when Clem reaches the point P he rows in the form of right angled triangle. and we know that the width of the river is 1 mile.

So by using Pythagoras Theorem we can infer that the distance covered by Clem is the hypotenuse which is equal to √(x²+1).

Time taken to complete this route is  4√(x²+1) .

Now  he has only to walk 4-x distance along the river.

His speed is 2 mph

Time taken = 2(4-x) = 8-2x

Hence we can conclude that the total time is 7 hours. so the equation to represent this is 7 = 4√(x²+1)+ 8 - 2 x .
